Here we'll feature some outstanding entries among the many 'One Hour Sonic' entries that are to come!

Drawings featured here would have demonstrated something pretty special - the choice of colours, composition and concept used by the artist are the highlight. Sometimes a little planning will make the difference between an ordinary entry to an extraordinary entry!

On top of that sometimes simplicity is the way to go compared to an entry with high amounts of detail, keep that in mind!

One last thing to point out - this 'Collections' folder will be updated once or twice a week. This will give 'specially picked' entries an opportunity to be given some additional exposure time since entries in the 'Featured' section are continuously updated, hence bumping entries from top to bottom very quickly!
Tic..Tac..Tic..Tac..
You know what time is this ? It's time for a new Weekly Feature !
This time again, no featured artist. But i'm going to talk about the competition i have just started five days ago...

But before that, let's start with the featured artist and deviation of the week ! :dummy:

Thanks for making the group alive with some great OHS drawing guys. ^-^

EDIT : S-sorry for make you worried guys. I think i just got scared with everything. Like someone say, if the competition don't get a lot of picture, i will extend the competition and not cancel it.
I'm pretty sorry guys for make you worried. ;_;

:bulletred::bulletred::bulletred:[OLD POST. THAT DONT COUNT ANYMORE]:bulletred::bulletred::bulletred:
Anyways, like the title say.. I was thinking about cancelling the competition..

You guys going to say "WHY YOU WILL DO THAT ?!". I will explain myself really quickly :

- Like i say on the previous journal, i was scared to do a contest. Because not a lot will join, i will do this for nothing and stuff.
And i have the feeling this going to happen.
In five day, only two entries.. For a group with 800 members, that kinda sad...

But i understand my fault, i totally forgot the final exam is comming the next month and so you don't have the time to join the contest. That why i'm thinking of reporting or extending the finish date..

- I'm alone. Doing all this work is not easy, and this contest was not easy.
Because Sonic 4 ep 2 was at the start for me and not for the group.
This is a friend got me the game for a lot of work i did for him, and i have asked Sonic 4 ep 2.

But after a while, i decided to give this game to the OHS group. Because i was sure a new contest will make a lot of people happy.
I don't blame you guys. You guys are amazing, but i have this feeling this contest will be a fail. A big one.

So what should i do ?
Cancelling the contest and report it to a another date ? Or maybe extending the Deadline ? Or maybe don't touch anything ?
Tell me what you thiking of all of this guys. I hope i will recieve a lot of reply about that..

P.S : For the three people have already did a OHSCM drawing for this contest, your drawing will be saved. No worry.

The Official OHS Competition Month (ACT 02)!

Hi everyone! Due to the group’s quietness, we haven’t had an event or a contest.
I have decided to finally start the new One Hour Sonic contest!!

But before that, I have to say a BIG THANK YOU to everyone who has joined the OHS group already..

+20.000 Pageviews
+1000 Watchers and over 800 members. This is just CRAZY. :dummy:
Thank you everyone for making this group alive EVERYDAY with some awesome drawings.. <3

ANYWAYS, LETS TALK ABOUT THE CONTEST NOW.

This month’s contest we are going to give a special attention a game just come out..
Frist episode alone, the Blue Hedgehog have now him best friend during the adventure !!
You maybe figured this out, this contest will be about SONIC 4 EP II :D



:star: :star: :bulletred: Official OHS Competition Month (Act 02) --- TERMS & CONDITIONS :bulletred: :star: :star:

GENERAL

i) Members of OHS group can only enter.

ii) One BEST entry per OHS member (hence you can created as many Sonic 4 ep II pics as you want, as long you submit your BEST one at the end of the day).

iii) Members who have submitted '0' (as in zero) OHS drawings can enter.

iv) Every entry must be done within 60 minutes (with a leeway of 10 minutes extra time).

v) Recording your work via 'On-screen capture', 'Livestream' or 'Camera' is NOT ESSENTIAL. However I/we (as in my team of contributors/judges should they wish not to participate in the contest) will keep a close eye on every entry submitted. We will do our best to give an honest judgement on whether the OHS contest entry has been 'realistically' created within 60 minutes. Please exercise honesty in your drawing and we will keep the good faith and accept your entry.

vi) DO NOT submit works that are not your own. DO NOT submit works that are copied, traced or stolen. Use your common sense, cheating sucks and it gives you a bad image of yourself toward the community of artists who worked hard on their entries.

vii) Traditional (i.e. paper, pencil/pen, scanning or photo-shooting of drawing) or digital means (ANY graphics application) are accepted.

viiia) Every entry MUST follow the official OHS dimensions used in the gallery (i.e. Horizontal alignment = 600 x 800 or Vertical alignment = 900 x 720). NO EXCUSES. Should your entry be off these dimensions please adjust accordingly by cutting and pasting your work onto a new canvas with the horizontal or vertical alignments. It only takes a few extra minutes of your time. People submitting photographs of entries are the only exceptions to this rule.

viiib) ALL ENTRIES are to be SUBMITTED into the Official OHS Contest Entries folder. Please do this to save the team and I the hassle of having to moving entries into the correct folder.

viiic) ALL ENTRIES must be TITLED with the following tagline: OHSCM02 - [insert title of your entry here]. Any entry that does not have the requested tagline will be removed from the gallery. Entries will be added to the gallery once the tagline has been corrected.

Here is one example of a title from our first entry: OHSCM02 - Sidekick come back !

CONTENT

ix) Each entry MUST be related to the Sonic 4 ep II game. ( Exemple : If you draw Knuckles in your drawing, that not allowed. Sorry Knuckles ! ;u; )

x) Characters like Vector, Charmy, Espio and characters that never appeared in the Sonic 4 Ep II game are not allowed.

xi) No comic styled entries please (i.e. entries containing panels and dialogue).

xii) Dialogue/words on entries are not allowed. This is purely an illustrated art piece.

VOTING and DEADLINE

xiii) Voting will be decided by the general public of the DA/Sonic fan community. Anyone can vote.

xiv) Voting will be done in stages and split into tiers. The votes will take place on my page (Ludolik) or other contributors’ pages. Each stage will be given a 3 day grace period after it is officially posted online, no more than that. The whole voting process will take at least TWO WEEKS to complete - depending on how many entries we receive.

xv) The official DEADLINE is two weeks from today.

:bulletred: DEADLINE DATE: 12 AM (FR) WEDNESDAY , 6 TH JUNE :bulletred:
(Dead line extended)

Please use this handy world time converter to find out what exact time it would be for your country and city.

xvi) NO EXCEPTIONS on late entries. NO EXTENSIONS to deadline time and date.

PRIZES

xvii) The 1st will get a copy of Sonic 4 ep II on STEAM, the 2nd will recieve 100 points and the 3th will recieve 50 points.

xviii) When the winners are announced they will directly receive a private message on deviantART, letting them know if they want to give the prize to someone else.

xix) All winners will be given the privilege to have their work submitted into the special 'OHSCM Contest Entry Winners' folder for presentation and record.

And now, you have all the information for you to start your drawing for the OHS CONTEST 02 ABOUT THE SONIC 4 EP II GAME !!

All I can say is... A BIG thanks you to :iconisakysaku: for the help with the presentation picture and GOOD LUCK to the OHS community!!
I will look very forward to reviewing your entries! :heart:
More Journal Entries

Welcome!




We are a group of artists who want to challenge ourselves to a session that's called a 'One Hour Sonic' - members who participate are given 60 minutes to exercise their creative flair and complete a drawing based off the popular 'Sonic the Hedgehog' universe.


For a video introduction to 'One Hour Sonic' please watch the video listed on my Youtube site. For a detailed explanation of the rules and purpose of the challenge head over to the
:bulletred: Official Rules :bulletred: page.


I hope that this 'One Hour Sonic' initiative will help others learn from each other's creative experiences (that is also captured on video for reference!).


Special 'themed' contests will be hosted by Elson 'Darkspeeds' Wong on a quarterly basis with a one month deadline to each. Darkspeeds will provide prizes unique to the winners who deserve recognition for their talent and effort put into an entry. Members of the community are more than welcome to send Elson Wong a PM if they want to donate prizes to the cause.


As a bonus we have a dedicated forum where artists have the opportunity to ask me and other like-minded artists questions that prove to be an artistic challenge for them. Head over to the :bulletgreen: Tricks of the Trade :bulletgreen: page to begin your Q&A styled inquiries.

Well, I'm not giving up that quickly. Still. Gosh that annoying.

I have a question. Can we submit linearts (we get permission first) from other artist and then just color it within the hour? Or does it have to be 100% from an artist? :)

Okay, I accepted it. Thank you :)
It was just an attempt and I don't do an OHS actually ^^; Maybe because I'm not good at drawing art within an hour.

Hey guys! Sorry for not being around. XD I'm kinda busy with my life right now, but as soon as things calm down, I'll draw more OHS stuff for you guys :)

No probs buddy, take your time. Really OHS is a place where you can come back at any time to just chill, get inspired and draw for fun! If you learn something from other's work (like I had with your stuff in the past) then that's a bonus! ;)
